PENERAPAN MODEL PEMBELAJARAN THINK ALOUD PAIR PROBLEM SOLVING (TAPPS) UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN PEMECAHAN MASALAH MATEMATIS DI SEKOLAH DASAR

Abstract

This research was motivated by the low ability to solve mathematical problems in class V students at UPT SDN 008 Laggini. The aim of this research is to describe the increase in students' mathematical problem solving abilities in geometric material by applying the Think Aloud Pair Problem Solving (TAPPS) learning model in class V UPT SDN 008 Laggini. This research method is classroom action research (PTK) which is carried out in two cycles. Each cycle consists of two meetings and four stages, namely planning, implementation, observation, reflection. The research subjects were 22 class V students, with 8 male students and 14 female students. Data collection techniques in this research used observation, test and documentation techniques. This research instrument uses learning tools, student worksheets and observation sheets. Based on data analysis, it can be seen that there is an increase in students' mathematical problem solving abilities. In pre-cycle activities, the class average score was 45.89, increased in cycle I meeting 1 to 73.16, increased in cycle I meeting 2 to 81.16. The average score in cycle II meeting 1 was 81.39 and increased in cycle II meeting 2 to 82.89. Thus, it can be concluded that, by implementing the Think Aloud Pair Problem Solving (TAPPS) learning model, it can improve the mathematical problem solving abilities of class V students at UPT SDN 008 Laggini.
